Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon R6 II is significantly lighter (520g ) than the Blackmagic Cinema 6K which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Blackmagic Cinema 6K and Canon R6 II have the same Full frame sized sensor, their lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will be similar in size and weight.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the R6 II, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the Cinema Camera 6K.
